nEarly in the morning, right after dawn, a figure of someone moved swiftly, quietly, without any sound. However, from time to time, the sound of the wind flow was heard, causing the figure to sigh slightly.

nTsukasa used the claymore he got from Goibniu yesterday to practice his swordsmanship, but as expected, he caused some mistakes in his routine. However, it wasn’t that he forgot, or his body had gone rusty. Instead, it was because the shape of the claymore wasn’t suitable to be used in his sword practice routine.

nIt might be because he had been using a Japanese sword for his swordsmanship routine, so using a claymore made it quite awkward for him.

nHowever, it didn’t mean he couldn’t use the claymore. After all, he had used a claymore during his fight against Stella for the first time in the past.

nClaymore was, after all, a western sword, and the west had its own way of using a sword.

nIf Tsukasa had to describe what kind of swordsmanship the West had, it would be efficient and overwhelming. The West sought the fastest, shortest, and using weight and power. Instead of technique, they used their strength to decapitate their opponents.

nOn the other hand, the East was different.

nThe East had a smaller body than the West.

nHowever, it was normal since they had a different type of diet. They couldn’t fight the West on strength, so they had to fight them with technique and speed. While some people might seem unacceptable, in terms of techniques, whether it was martial arts or way of weapons, the East was more profound and deeper.

nAs for his swordsmanship, Tsukasa followed the East way since they had more research on it since it was part of their lives.

nAs for the West, instead of thinking with a sword, it was better to shoot their opponents with rifles or destroy everything with a nuclear bomb.

nAccording to his image, the swordsmanship that he unleashed should be like a hurricane, using elastic tracks to parry blows, and hard to follow the trajectory to slay his opponents’ vital instantly. However, the claymore lacked the elasticity that the Japanese sword could perform, causing his swordsmanship to lose its delicateness. Instead, it was rigid and heavy.

nIt might seem bad for people who had gotten used to the Japanese sword, but it wasn’t for him.

nWhile it was rigid and heavy, the claymore was good for straightforward swordsmanship. Right now, his swordsmanship was like a volcano eruption, destroying everything on its path and becoming a catastrophe. Yet, it hadn’t lost its subtle delicateness, swiftly and quietly.

n‘Anyway, in two weeks, I’ll get my sword.’

nTsukasa didn’t really mind using this sword at first since he could use any type of weapon as long as he wanted to. Also, this sword was a hundred times better than the weapons he took from the monsters in the dungeon.

nWhile swinging his sword, he thought about what had happened yesterday. While it was a good and enjoyable thing to do with Demeter since they happened to meet, she told him she wanted to meet him again if possible. If he was a cruel guy, he could reject her, but he was born with a gentle heart, so he could only accept to meet her seldom since he was quite busy with the dungeon and the matter of becoming stronger.

nHowever, Tsukasa must admit he also missed Demeter.

nWhile the matter of the Demeter was good, the other matter was even better.

nWhile helping with the treatment on Loki’s chest, Tsukasa talked about what had happened yesterday with Loki.

nLoki, who heard his experience, could only stare at him in a daze, thinking this guy was really lucky, so she tried to update his status, and as expected, the result dumbfounded her.

n‘Luck has become A-rank, huh?’

nTsukasa was amazed by his luck and how strong he was after he came to this world. The improvement in his physical ability and magic was obvious, and the knowledge he gained from this world was precious. Without a doubt, he could become stronger and richer after he returned to his world.

n‘Well, let’s go back after I become Level 5.’

nTsukasa missed Touka, Kanata, Stella, Kagami, Kiriko, and many others in this original world.

nHe was about to rest and return, but someone suddenly came out from the hiding place. After training for a while, he wiped the sweat on his forehead with a towel. He had noticed this person who had been observing him secretly and wondering when this person came out.

nAis Wallenstein.

nAis walked out of her hiding place, holding her weapon before she stood near Tsukasa before she greeted him after a moment of pause. “…Good morning.”

nIt was her first time greeting him, which surprised him, but he nodded and calmly greeted her. “Good morning.”

nAis drew out her sword.

nIt was a slender, silver-white sword with a gleam of light when it was drawn, showing how sharp it was.

nEven if Tsukasa didn’t know what kind of material was used on this sword, without a doubt, this sword was powerful, and it might even exceed some blade type Blazer that he often saw in his original world.

nUnder his gaze, Ais raised her rapier and then faced the free space before her and suddenly launched a fierce attack like a storm, wild, uncontrollable, without any breaks. However, it was fast since it could create countless afterimages.

nAfter a while, Ais stopped, then looked at Tsukasa. Her lips squirmed before she asked after a moment of pause. “…What do you think?”

n“????” Tsukasa titled his head.

n“…My swordsmanship.”

n“…Are you practicing sword?” Tsukasa asked in doubt.

n“?” Ais was confused.

n“I thought you wanted to kill someone.”

n“…Why do you say that?”

nAis silently re-sheathed her sword and stood there. Her eyes were fixed on Tsukasa. The reflection of his figure printed on her golden pupils showed a “very” serious expression.

n‘Communication disorder?’ Tsukasa thought instantly. He lay his chin on his palm, crossing his legs, then asked casually, “Are you in a hurry?”

nIt was like an arrow pierced through her heart.

nWith just a glance, a single word, Tsukasa penetrated and saw through her heart like her swordsmanship.

n“It’s easy to see the reflection of someone’s heart from their swordsmanship. For example, someone with a stable personality will focus more on defense, blocking, survival, and steadily defeating their opponent instead of launching a powerful attack one after another. However, your swordsmanship is like a storm. It is as if you want to defeat your enemy as soon as possible, and you want to become stronger quickly. That’s what I see from your swordsmanship,” Tsukasa said calmly.

n“…..”

nAis was in a daze, and she thought this young man was awesome!
